I just came across the word "Dawsonite", which conveniently has the word
"DAW" in it. :) Just wanted to share.
Yes, this email thread is originally from 2010. :) No, I don't think it's
wise to rename the software, just food for thought. :)

Reading through Rob's post (from 2010) he mentions the name "Unison".
I think "Unison Studio" sounds nice.
But, you know, renaming and all... difficult.

Well... I do like Unison (I wouldn't recommend Dawsonite tho, it's hard
to say for latin-like languages native speakers like me).
I still think something like "Open Tracks Studio" could be an option,
but changing the name right now is quite a bad idea, we just reached 1.1
version...
We could,
What sparked the recent idea was watching "XBMC" change to "Kodi".

I feel it is a bit too long. I remember when "GAIM" switched to "Pidgin" and

Unison Studio (or just Unison for short) is pretty short. 3 syllables.
Unison is easy to pronounce (for an american anyway).
Unison is a common music term, and memorable.
Unison represents multiple things going together, which is what producing
essentially is.
But I agree with DeRobyJ. If we're to
Yea that's a good strategy to find a great name.
But you compared 3 different things:

- VLC is an acronym

Unison is a nice word, but all too common in my opinion. Perhaps there
should be another bullet point for being unique (enough).
What about "*Silas*"?
It's a Greek-based word. Most Latin-derived languages should be abl

No. We've been down this road too many times to start misleading people.
When the right name comes up, you'll know it (much like our logo). When
the time is right, the name wil

Also, for a short name such as Silas or Unison, an acronym is not
necessary. Just remove the "studio" off the name for short.
I like Silas and Unison. Open Tracks Studio is too long. Latido sounds
weird to me.

Unison is too common, I would choose it.
Silas sounds a bit cacophonous (to use a Greek term) to me. But it might
be just me.
The ending "s"is the problem: we "Latins" would all pronounce it
differently to each other.

Latido sounds catchy to me

Wait, how do you pronounce Latido?
Is it,

- ti (like in "teeth")
- Do (the note)

FYI - That's the same pgiblock that helped write LMMS, BTW. :)

What about a Japanese or Korean name? Europeans and Americans usually
don't have problems with those.
I don't know for Chinese users here.
For example, Muse is Myūzu in Japanese.
Myute?

Why is this so important? I don't really care how this software will be

Hi,
just change Linux to *Libre*
then it can prevent confusion and we don't have to change the name.
LMMS is becoming more well known, and I think completely changing the
branding at this point is not beneficial.

Having spent some time today reading through our open pull requests, we
appear to have a growing list, many have requests for contributors to make
changes, and the are a few with unconcluded conversations.
I recently listened to a blender podcast, where they spoke of a similar
situation. The
Not to be pretentious but my contribution to enhance the Lmms
translation in the code and improve the French translation does not show
up in the Languages/Locale part of the Features and fixes.
I know I am not a regular contributor but this has been a not-so-easy
job ;-)

@midi-pascal, please bump the bug report or PR and an admin will add it to
the listing. I believe the latest Japanese translations missed the list
too. Catch any more, just let us know.
